Does everyone who follows get it?

Pursue our dreams, learn to get up every time we fall, never stop fighting for what we want and not give up.. All this is part of our culture, it gives us strength and makes us continue on our path. It is also good that sometimes they tell us that knowing each other’s limits will give us peace and that sometimes, by changing the routes we can find and reach, although along a different route, the same goal.

“Whoever follows it gets it”, we have surely heard this on various occasions throughout our lives and sometimes persisting for a long time leads us to wear ourselves out inside, paying too high a price for the performance of our effort. By this I mean both exams, a job, new projects, new relationships or new destinations… it doesn’t matter what the goal is.

When to stop? When we feel that we no longer visualize the final destination and that we only work through automatic mechanisms that we are acquiring, it is time to stop, to define new paths and to glimpse my objective again. If we manage not to lose sight of what we want, we will give meaning to our efforts and it will become a challenge.a challenge that from time to time will require an evaluation to check if what I am doing now brings me closer to where I want to be in the future.

What will happen if I don’t get it?

What will happen if I feel like I can’t continue? Let’s try not to see goals only as final/total objectives, learn to appreciate the path that leads us to them and valuing everything you learn will be a way to go step by step, enjoying and taking advantage of each link we join in the chain. It will relax the anxiety of wanting to get to the end faster and will give us space to evolve in each of the steps we take.

Knowing my limits will give me the opportunity to know how far I can go to not wear myself out. It’s going to keep me from losing sight of what I want; Sometimes only with a change of perspective will I acquire the possibility of obtaining tools, acquiring new skills and… Keep building!

Feeling like we have failed will happen if we only have the final goal in mind, if we have not managed to see everything we have advanced from the beginning or what we are learning with each passing day.

Every decision we make, every option we choose leads us to define who we are and where we are. My goal will be to learn to see that it’s not just about the top of the mountain, but about how we climb it and where we put each foot. We can slide in an instant, getting to the top requires a great amount of time.

Doing well will not be enough, but doing my best

If we manage to give our best, if we manage to put in all our desire and make the maximum effort, we will not be able to feel that we have lost. We will not be able to see a failure because those who give their best cannot blame themselves for anything. Being satisfied with our work makes us feel full and complete internally, if later what is outside has not come out at least we will have that energy left to insist or seek a new goal.

Therefore, get up after a fall, learn to look for new routes, new paths. when what you are doing has lost meaning or does not bring you as much as it did at the beginning. Take your time to see where you started and how far you’ve come. Strive every day to be the best version of yourself. Consider whether where you are now brings you closer to where you want to be tomorrow and, of course, enjoy every little step. Finally, don’t forget to value yourself and strengthen yourself whenever you can: this is a task that others will not always do for you.
